The announcement was made after a lawsuit was filed by 12 Jane Does regarding sexual misconduct at the university.
An LU spokesperson said the investigation into the mishandling of sexual assault reports and Title IX violations has since been completed.
They released the following statement:
The Title IX independent review was completed and the results were shared and well received by the Board of Trustees. Liberty’s program is generally in compliance but recommendations for improving beyond what the law requires were made and all of those recommendations have been accepted. The Sexual Misconduct policy was also revised. There has been a department reorganization and re-alignment for the personnel engaged in Title IX work. This includes university authorization to hire additional staff as well as an overall increased budget for the department. The department will also be relocated to space with higher visibility at the Montview Student Union. Many other recommendations have been implemented and a University task force is overseeing the ongoing implementation of the rest.
